Representative Tom Demmer (R-Dixon) was appointed to several key committees as
the new legislative session begins. Rep. Demmer will serve on committees that
are especially important to constituents in his district, including those
overseeing healthcare, education, and agriculture.

“I'm looking forward to working on key legislative topics in
healthcare, education, and agriculture,” said Rep. Demmer. “I know these topics
are of particular importance to people in my district and serving on these
committees will be an opportunity to directly influence key legislation."

“We are facing a $6 billion dollar hole in the budget for
FY15. Appropriations for the two committees I will be serving will bring some
unique challenges, but we will work to make sure funding is a priority for
these areas, especially education,” added Rep. Demmer.

Constituents can find more information on committee
assignments by visiting the State website (ilga.gov). The website also provides
a full calendar for this year’s spring session and committee schedule.

Rep. Demmer can be contacted at his district office located
at 1221 Currency Court, Rochelle, IL 61068 or by calling the office at (815)
